Microchip MPLAB DSC Starter Kit DM330011

USB cable, CD containing MPLAB IDE, MPLAB C Compiler for dsPIC DSCs, application notes and sample programs. dsPIC Starter Kit. The MPLAB Starter Kit for dsPIC Digital Signal Controllers connects directly to the USB port on a PC. The USB connection supplies both communications and power to the board. The starter kit includes debug and programmer circuitry that allows applications to be programmed onto the board ‘s dsPIC33 device and then debugged, all using MPLAB IDE. Audio input signals from an external microphone or audio equipment are routed to the ADC module in the on-board dsPIC33 device for software processing. Alternatively, applications can use the audio codec for converting the audio signal. Output signals can be generated by the dsPIC33 device ‘s Output Compare module as a pulse-width modulated (PWM) digital waveform. This PWM signal is converted to an analogue signal by a low-pass filter on the starter kit board. Alternatively, applications can output audio data using the audio codec. The output audio signal is then amplified using a headphone amplifier circuit for playback on an output device. dsPIC33FJ256GP506 40MIPS DSC, 256KB Flash memory, 16KB SRAM On-board 4Mbit serial Flash memory 16/24/32bit audio CODEC with a maximum sampling frequency of 48kHz Low cost audio capture and playback circuitry using the 12bit ADC and PWM audio Microphone and line level inputs with adjustable input gain 100mW headphone amplifier with digital volume control 2 x user switches 3 x user LEDs Temperature sensor Powered from USB port
